I am convinced that Cliff was on the Autism Spectrum. He was socially awkward, and acted inappropriate. Did the writers deliberately make his character seem like he had Aspergers, or was it coincidental?

Asperger syndrome (AS), also known as Asperger's, is a developmental disorder characterised by significant difficulties in social interaction and nonverbal communication, along with restricted and repetitive patterns of behavior and interests.
